Representations of sl(3)
by
N J Wildberger
UNSW

Two new and simplified models of the irreducible representations of sl(3) are presented. Both are over the integers and are more computationally friendly than Gelfand Tsetlin. The Zed model uses zigzags in the plane and the Diamond model uses a three dimensional polytope to describe actions of all basis elements completely explicitly.
